1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), the most aggressive and lethal form of renal cell carcinoma accounts for over 90% of metastasis that occur following curative surgery for clinically confined disease. High relapse rates have prompted the evaluation of targeted therapies for the prevention or delay of metastatic disease in high-risk patients, with biomarkers offering significant potential to guide and improve patient management in this setting. In this current study we examined the value of the 4E-BP1/eIF4E axis for prognostic significance and risk stratification in patients with clinically confined ccRCC. This axis is a critical convergence point for many signalling pathways that are targeted by current therapies for the treatment of advanced RCC. Immunohistochemistry for phosphorylated 4E-BP1 (p4E-BP1) and total eIF4E was performed on tissue microarrays containing tumour cores from 135 patients with localised ccRCC. For both biomarkers 39% of all evaluable cores stained positive, with a strong correlation observed between the presence of p4E-BP1 and the overexpression of eIF4E within the same tumour (P = 0.005). Further, the combined expression of p4E-BP1 and eIF4E was associated with significantly worse disease-free survival of 2.9 vs 5.7 yrs compared to patients whose tumours expressed only one, or neither, of the biomarkers (P < 0.001). Cox-regression analysis confirmed the ability of the p4EBP1/eIF4E signature to independently identify high-risk patients with a Hazard Ratio of 4.2 (CI = 2.1-8.6; P < 0.001), compared to 3.3 for tumour grade 3 and 4, and 2.3 for tumour stage 3 and 4. These data show the powerful prognostic value of the p4E-BP1/eIF4E signature for potential management of patients with clinically confined ccRCC, and in addition provides insights into the possible key synergistic determinants of disease progression and treatment response.
